Publication, copyright and information sharing

[ouidjat]

Dear Neil,

Good point!

I can see a “little” difference, however, between a 35 million Euros Van Gogh painting owner who will show it, print it on high quality publications open to everyone...
And a 400Euros stamp size photo collector who will never show it except on cigarette thin paper, cut, many times for "publication reason" if not enlarged on two pages size (again cut right in the middle) ...
And who will declare ...err (sic) ... "you don't see the detail I'm talking about in the publication, but, believe me, I have THE HIGH resolution original one etc. etc. bla bla bla."
Do you know what I mean?

As for eBay ownership - you know what I mean too; well I hope. If not please refer to LGR rules - I'm talking about, I'm not the owner of the links I provide, I don't pretend to be.
But some do; indeed they do, but do not follow the rules they want to establish for others, not for themselves.

As for scans put on line with "copyright unknown", if the copyright is unknown, well it's because it's unknown for who did put this photo on line. As when he knows I think he's always indicating the source ... except for eBay pictures; Isn't he?

I know - you know, of course you know - another worst case, a case where a guy is putting all necessary references, always, even referring to the one who did point it the picture (I think you know the meaning of the word "via") .. But still has been roughly insulted, asking him to prepare his lawyer, putting, at last, his own Professional capacities in doubts ...

You know Neil I really don't like your contemptuous “enthusiast”. For who the hell are you publishing? Who feeds on “enthusiasts”?
By the contrary are you pretending you’re able to publish something without the help of those enthusiasts?
Do you know the guy who is, actually, doing it ONLY with the help of enthusiasts? (And who, by the way, is always expecting the last eBay picture to complete his pictured history; which is the other and main aspect of my thread) And who, too, and indeed, does adopt contemptuous sentences when he is not satisfied by the provided answers … falling deep inside and using the exactly same comments received by the one whose professional capacities have been put in doubts!
…
What a lack of insights!

Kind regards, Franck.

PS: Do you really need an augmented and CORRECTED edition? I thought it was already perfect … Wasn’t it?
But “enthusiasts” are pointing some inconsistencies, as usual. The Hell of the “enthusiast”!
